i think once you have to ask, then you have enough on your plate already.
"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."
Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.
Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?
You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.
Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.
How many can we juggle?

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"
You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.
For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.
Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.
The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

Of course.Francisco d'Anconia said:This type of thing is not unheard of if you're able to make enough of an impact on a person during the times you are together. Plus it helps that you don't drop the plate and it breaks on the floor. You just kinda pack it away for safe keeping. Every one in a while it gets unpacked and dusted off.
Over the past couple of years I've made a conscious effort to ensure that every woman I deal with ALWAYS looks at me as a man. And that means that the ones who are physically attracted to me will continue to be physically attracted to me.
But you do have to admit that to really spin plates you can't just put them away and pull them out again at will. Might work with some, but for the most part they will require at least a minimal amount of attention.
One of my "plates" is going to school up north and getting ready to come back into town in a couple of weeks as a matter of fact.
It's good to be able to put the bubble wrap on some of them when they're not in use!

lol. Now I got the old Kinks tune in me head:
... and when you're old and gray you will remember what they said: that two girls are too many, three's a crowd, and four you're dead
I presume Ray Davies wasn't talking about just dating, but there's some truth in the "four you're dead" bit.
